Animal Fund
Your annual sponsorship will help us in providing the
appropriate diet, bedding and veterinary care
for the sponsored animal.
You will receive a picture of the breed of animal sponsored with detailed information about the breed and the specific animals here on the farm. An added bonus to an annual farm animal sponsorship is an opportunity to meet the animal up close and personal, all that is needed is an appointment to insure that a museum educator will be available to guide your visit.
Good things to know about your donation:
Your annual sponsorship is goes toward a animal at the Remick Farm. Specific animals on the farm here at the Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm can change from season to season. You will receive with your sponsorship packet a picture and letter about the type of animal you are helping to sponsor.
